【 摘 要 】

An iterative method for the adjustment of curves is obtained by applying the least squares method reiteratively in functional subclasses, each defined by one parameter, after assigning values to the rest of the parameters which determine a previously determined general functional class. To find the minimum of the sum of the squared deviations, in each subclass, only techniques of optimization are used for real functions of a real variable.The value of the parameter which gives the best approximation in an iteration is substituted in the general functional class, to retake the variable character of the following parameter and repeat the process, getting a succession of functions. In the case of simple linear regression, the convergence of that succession to the least squares line is demonstrated, because the values of the parameters that define each approximation coincide with the values of the parameters obtained when applying the method of Gauss - Seidel to the normal system of equations. This approach contributes to the teaching objective of improving the treatment of the essential ideas of curve adjustment, which is a very important topic in applications, what gives major importance to the optimization of variable functions.
